- knotted tapestry by 'De Stijl' artist Bart van der Leck (1876-1958)Located in ZEIST, UTknotted tapestry by 'De Stijl' artist Bart van der Leck (1876-1958) with important provenance Bart van der Leck, together with Piet Mondrian and Theo van Doesburg, is one of the founding members of the 'De Stijl' group in 1916-1917. At that time, Bart van der Leck's work had a major influence on the development of the work of Piet Mondrian and Theo van Doesburg. This carpet comes from and is used in the Villa Schöne-van der Leck in Blaricum. The villa Schöne-van der Leck was built in 1953 after a design by Piet J. Elling in collaboration with the artist Bart van der Leck. The clients, Mr. and Mrs. O. Schöne-Van der Leck, were Bart van der Leck's son-in-law and daughter, respectively. The villa Schöne-van der Leck has exceptional art-historical value because of the collaboration between the architect Elling and 'De Stijl' artist Bart van der Leck, resulting in a total work of art according to the principles of 'De Stijl', in which the various disciplines have equal value. contributed. The property has a rarity value due to the fact that very few such total works of art have been preserved according to the principles of 'De Stijl'; as far as we know, this is the only one by Elling and Van der Leck. The entire house was decorated in 'De Stijl' visual language.

- Mathieu Matégot - Castille, tapestry, french, modern, abstract, aubusson, designBy Mathieu MatégotLocated in London, GBMathieu Matégot (1910-2001) Castille c.1950s Aubusson tapestry, Pinton Frères; (probably) unique 156 x 120 cm signed ‘Matégot’ and with the Pinton Frères monogram (lower right); titled, inscribed, numbered and signed (workshop label on the verso) Price: $14,000 USD Provenance: Barry Friedman Ltd, New York (stock no. BF11410) Notes: Mathieu Matégot was a Hungarian-born French designer, architect and artist. After studying at Budapest's School of Fine Arts in 1929, Matégot travelled across Italy and the USA until settling in Paris in 1931 where he worked as a set designer, window dresser and tapestry maker. Matégot volunteered for the French resistance at the start of the Second World War, only to be captured by the Nazis. A dreadful fate for most, however, it was during his time as a prisoner of war that the artist discovered metalworking techniques (such as Rigitulle) which he later patented and became renowned for. Upon his release, Matégot was awarded French citizenship. After the war, the artist's interest in tapestry was renewed after being introduced to contemporary tapestry revivalist, Jean Lurçat. However, in order to make ends meet, Matégot pursued furniture design; he established a workshop in Paris and dedicated his time to translating the groundbreaking metal techniques into popular handcrafted objects. In 1959, Matégot abandoned furniture design and focused exclusively on his passion for abstract tapestries. He continued his work as a pioneer of French Modern tapestry...Category
